Ah, i anthony ok on todays upset and string when looking ahead to the october the 2nd connections in brazil. There are 12 president ial candidates, but were going to be looking at the leading to present. I am most narrow and also u. S. And last year new la da silva. Here they are debating on august the 29th. Are you good to shape . Dont waste the country i left is a country that the people mess. It was a country of employment. It was a country where people had the rights to live with dignity, with their heads up in this country will come back. You can buy, you ever go to. So there was corruption, president lula. You want to come back. What for . To keep doing the same thing at petro battle, rice give a little bit there for the workers party, the worse off the people are the poor, the better for them to do politics off those. It will, if you so much. So you have to very different candidates. Now, what would you like to know about them on today . Show we are going to be exploring key Campaign Issues and whats at stake for presenting. And so you can do in a conversation right here in the Comment Section on you chip ah, oh, expert expert panel. Hello. Lona, i be honest to see is so lovely to have all 3 of you here. We are going to unpack the upcoming elections. Whats that state . Whats going on in brazil right now in know, welcome, please say hello to our audience around the world. Thank your family. My name is elena zabel. Im the co founder president of they got to get to have you. I donna welcome. Please say hello to audience. Thank you for having me for me. Im of the english market. My manager asked students for liberty, brazil that to happen. And cecilia, nice to see you, please say as to see a to thank you so much for inviting me. Im cecilia naggie. Im managing editor at americas quarterly. All right, very good. I am going to get you guess, to build a picture of what these 2 candidates are like. Lets put up the candidate whos currently present at the moment. Cecilia, tell me 2 things about almost an hour that would be helpful for him to national audience. To know. Both narrow came and from left field even though his on the right. He just surprised everybody when he got elected. He is a long time politician who was in congress for almost 30 years as a french character who just exploded in 2018 as the leading candidate with a the scorsone, a rhetoric of supporting families. Freedom which to him equates a right to have guns and against abortion, and for family and specially religion. All right. It did. Cecilia, any of you anything more to add to post now so we get this instant picture of how hes campaigning. What is hes like . What did he style like you . Cecilia, just put them in the right place, but i would say that these in a far life are right. Candidates like very much like trump and the week there are been populous, authoritarian leaders that are trying to undermine democracy from within. And thats an important feature for the election because its an election about democracy we have so it feels that weve got to polar opposites as leading candidates. Lets have a look at louise in astro new lead to silva. Put his candidate caught up. And this time, and you start with 2 things that would be helpful for us to know before we get deep into our conversation to or so lula is pregnant. That came from the people he had the to context of mandates and was responsible for include the most number, the populations in, lets say the lower and middle middle class. So he comes with a flag of were going to be happy again. He last also with the corruption gambles, the processes that you are facing were notified by the Justice System because they were not respecting the due process according to our supreme court. So he wants to come back to just try another another time to show what his par to had to has to do for the brazilian. People see that . Yeah, and this is sort of a playback this election should have been in 2018. So in 2018 hoola was ahead in the polls when he was arrested and taken to jail on these allegations that that you learned just mentioned. So he was taken out of that run right, a few months before the election. So now were actually sort of re read the reliving a 2018 election. But guess lula has a banner of poverty fighting against poverty. He was a poor man himself. He came from a very, very poor family that migrated from the northeast almost on foot and had you know, very little education and sort of like pulled himself up from the bootstraps and became a new union leader. Very well known love to global that he is a relatively well spoken man. I mean, he really has the power of words and resonates with people. But so does both scenarios in completely different narrative. But hes also incredibly powerful in his speech. I be on im wondering what the atmosphere is like in brazil right now, few more weeks to go before the elections. What is at stake for sale at this point in terms of social conditions, living conditions, what might be possible depending on what happens on october the 2nd . Well, actually we are facing a very polarized environment right now. Where dan sions are alike all over the place. Actually, i just hope that whoever gets selected, we have a little more space to debate peacefully because i see maybe there, there is a, arise of violent speeches, etc. So im kind of worried that this may get worse depending on who gets elected. Can you give me an example when you say theres a rise of violet speech or say youve got a better view of that than we have . What does that mean . What have you heard . Basically on social media, i think ilana, will agree with me. Thats something that we see every day actually on where people are attacking each other, you know, in a very hostile wait actually. And it seems like we can debate politics in the city more and i need you thought and then to so you can feel you pick out that these are the very important the so i think i hate speech. This information with information is not new, but it has been with us in the last election. But this to say that there is a different thing now, which is the rectory actually from the phone buttons in terms of Political Violence that people should respond to any result which is not the result of he winnie with violence. Take the gun that he allowed people to buy and then just in his speech protected democracy which, which of course, i would argue that its against them all proceed, but thats, thats what is that they can believe a part of the Political Violence, silica had it. Yeah. Im just going to add on andrea and actually throw you another question to, to, to a loaner. Because the were, were seeing just today in the news. Again, another person who was killed by another one by an political discussion. And the man just, you know, killing each other. There was another men celebrating his Birthday Party was killed because he had lula banners around his Birthday Party. So this trends, ladies, its moving out of social media and we had this pushed for more guns on the streets. And that to me is the scariest part of the moment in my country is, is this push for more weapons and the longer thats what i say because of the rise was what like some 300 percent more guns in the hands of civilian since 2018 Something Like that, right . Absolutely. So this is a, you know, i work for over 20 years in Civil Society when and like with a non partisan independent organization. But were here really facing track to are the more crack system. What are they on . I brought in terms of lack of dialogue, we had the closer to the space in this country that was unprecedented since the dictatorship time was facing now is really the, the intent of not accepting. There was the results of the election. And of course, society and institutions are pushing back against that, but were having to restate every day our support for democracy to come through. And my organization has been leading the gun control, i say, initiative with another Organization Called the school to. So the last 2 to be able to help out, lets say, a Evidence Base dialogue of what it means to leave or not. But then well craddick states where people have to like accept the rule of the law and cannot pick justice into their own. Hence, i, john, i let me share with you some headlines that we picked out their international headlines. I some concerns from outside of brazil, on my laptop here prep, brazils president ial Campaign Kicks off and made fears of violence. Facebook i would, i matter is failing to prevent a repeat of january the 6th in brazil report warns than imminent election crisis in brazil are these over wrought with these accurate i think its accurate actually, because like i said, we are facing a very polarized campaign. Political campaign and, and since the beginning of the campaign i feel that things are getting a little bit worse in this sense. Um, because like i told you before, you go and social media and to see people are taking each other. Like, it seems like we are not able to more to talk as individuals will have to respect each others views. And thats something that really worries me because i like lona said, its democracy who is at stake. So its important to was to learn how to talk to each other again with respect and peacefully. Lets talk about 2 issues that are impacting voters. And sometimes what some of the Campaign Child is not what really is needed for the country. Im wondering if theres a disconnect there, but for you to see that what is one of the most Critical Issues that will be important when people go to vote and they make that decision hunger. I think for, you know, if you have 33000000 people hungry and the country its, you know, when he gets to the vote, its one vote one person. It doesnt matter what your bank account is like. So right now we do have several cohorts of society that support one or the other, but a large one that they are hungry, they need food on the table. So i think that for a very large bit of the population, because the 33000000 that are going hungry, then you can add easily several other 1000000 people who are just scraping by. So once you have this scenario, i think thats what its going to count the most at the moment of voting. I would agree just that the cost of living in general has increased the many as in many other parts of the world. But brazil faces an economic crisis. People are like with difficulty the pain, their b. O. So unemployment. I also see people worried about health and education. So the public goods provision and of course so violence, acute is always also in the order of the day. So its a, its a jobs economics and public goods election. What about indigenous vote is because often may all pushed out of the thinking of what, where is brazil going next . Something that luna is always been thinking about. But bo scenario has changed that trend in the last few years. Climate save me amazon, who is important to the voters. Thats very interesting question i cuz i asked myself like, you know, you see the world looking at the brazil and thinking of brazil as, as, as a big amazon and to the issues there. But you go into the amazon and you see a population that needs jobs and who is employing them, whos giving them jobs, illegal loggers, illegal miners, and people who wore pushing deforestation. So these are jobs and you know, the larger groups that are behind this push are not the ones actually doing, but cutting of the trees. So you have a real issue that were both in our support in the north, despite his a b, lets say a weird environmental a policies its, its very strong because these are their jobs. So i think that there is a great disconnect there. But if i may say, so given the indigenous, i think that one thing that happened since 2018 is that the indigenous groups got a lot more voice and guts and are getting a lot stronger. So i think if there is any benefit to the old is the, you know, insanity that its happening on their situation. Its that even though its the because it got worse to them, i think they got more of a voice and theyre getting heard more and more active and more organized. Even, you know, Indigenous Women are organizing and several other groups. So i think that there is strength in numbers and they are still need support from the outside, but i think they are getting stronger. Let me just now weekly. Sure. Um, yeah, and i think i should have us. No, i think this is a very important teacher because it, on the one hand cecilia sulkily right to say they got more voice and theyre coming bigger numbers. I think its the highest number to start that recording the number of candidates that self declare indigenous. But its also because they are under threat your toward the territory or under threat. So they feel they need to mobilize politically. So you see a pushback and its a, its a good the pushback in representation and we hope you know, many of them get elected. I want to just play a little by it from luna to silva talking about the Indigenous People for sale on why they are important to him and also to brazil. Of course, as having listen, this country cannot continue to be governed by someone who doesnt like Indigenous People who doesnt like black people, who doesnt like women who doesnt like union leaders, who doesnt like the amazon, who doesnt like serrato catania. The amazon rain forest who doesnt like its people so we wouldnt be completely about talk about election without talking about misinformation. Was the information out there. I think that thats now typical for every election that has any digital input adiana. Whats going on . You know what sent messages recently on one sec. Yeah, actually there is a lot of fake news. We have a lot of groups today so you can go around, you know, and what is dangerous about it is that information spreads really quickly. So i get Something Like, i dont know, at 4 oclock in than 430, Everybody Knows the same thing. And sometimes its a misleading information that i have to have about ask what kind of misleading information. Because then weve set it on al jazeera, but give me an idea of saying that itself, is he so ludicrous that everybody is not going to believe it . Um, basically formation about the 2 candidates leading candidates, both nato and lula and misleading formation about both of them. Thats what i see the most. Actually like, like i said before, it seems like people can talk im, im on a peaceful level so they have to attack each other and most of the time using lice to do it. So, oh, i dont actually know how gonna to when to fight this because everybodys free to share whatever they want. But, but its a, its a problem were facing right now because many people dont go after information to try to find the truth before themselves. And they believe the 1st thing they see yeah, this thing now go on as i was just commenting, that is one of the scariest thing. Yeah, and i would say one of the most of the mental one is the ones at the into question, our electoral voting system, which is a very modern 11. 00 that elected including a current president. And you know that he and his group a tried the whole time to discredit the system, saying there is a secret room that would control and the fraud brazil elections. And i think this is a very, very dangerous message. As unfortunately, when weve seen the polls, the presence 2 or 3, i do believe that the election sir can be further than that war fraud. Even if he was elected. Yeah, i yeah. He said that he wanted the 1st round he did in lieu, he didnt win and 2nd, ready for them. Right . Not one example actually of the, you know, big run, you know, if i dont when the election has been stolen. Absolutely. Let me, i this is, its so interesting area. We spoke to maria, who is the director of Human Rights Watch in brazil, and this is what she told us. Its almost a warning for what may happen post october. The 2nd, lets have a look president wilson that who is running for reelection has sought to in their mind trust in the electoral system, atlanta without providing any proof that it is a reliable, in addition to be attacking the independent media at taking the judiciary. There had been no proof in cases of fraud in brazil since we adopted the electronic electoral system more than 20 years ago. Its crucial that International Community act in that way that support free and free elections in brazil. And then the clear cut method to wilson, that, that an attempt to not respect that we will proceed in voters will not be tolerated. So thats an issue that we dont know if its gonna happen yet. Theres some concern, but we dont know quite yet. I want to give our viewers watching this a little snippet of boston arrow to see his confidence at this stage in the campaign. And then im gonna open up our conversation. We have so many questions for you guess on youtube. Were going to do a speed around and see how many of them we can outset and address, but 1st his pastor boss an hour. It is good. There must have heard. We know that we have a fight between good and evil ahead of us. The evil that lasted for 14 years in our country that almost broke our homeland. A don now wants to come back to the crime scene. They wont. The people are by our side. The people are on the good side. The people know what they want. Oh, all right, so lets go to youtube. Got so many questions and comments. Renato, for instance, says president boston, our i refused to buy pfizer vaccines. There were so many avoidable deaf c also not people dying without breath. Its clearly a death for our democracy. That is when our toes perspective, but its interesting that for this home 20 minutes or so, nobody mentioned convert alone or why . Well, i would say because were dealing with the threat of the day, but that was a huge issue in brazil, several 100 people almost dad. There is a research that shows that 4 out of 5 of these that could be preventable if the government had acted. The president was denied himself as a denial for climate change, for instance. But he was against masks. He was against buying like some like vaccines. So our governors actually did a great job and providing when his ation is brazil has like a very high records over 90 our population, but as far to the now the on to back to the modem and also real in the country. So that was absolutely failure. And a lot of like a suffering that should be prevented. All right, i to, you mentioned this earlier on how to invited resilience right now. How youtube comments, a completely divided as well. Edwardo lula was the biggest thief in our country. Mo, mo scenario is a want to be trump. What do we get out of that situation . If weve got one group saying your candidate is wrong, another group saying no candidate is wrong. Who suffers or who benefits . Arianna . And i think who suffers the most is this the more prosy itself. Because like i said that democracy is up to democracy to be strengthened. We need a scenario where people can dial, you know, and thats what im, im not seeing happening. So this is my main concern about the elections and as you can see, we are facing a very paralyzed scenario. So, so i is just like a little microcosm of what is happening. Im sure in brazil, ive got this really interesting comment here to see that im looking to unpack it and maybe add to it if you can. The brazilian people want most narrow, but the lease one, luna, thats one persons take. Can you . Yeah, its interesting. Its so interesting that you know, and then if you ask that will be someone else who would say the opposite. Really, zachary 40 both in our lives. Thats, thats the we got that to the situation where its not an election which policy we want, its an election of which, which met though, which idol we have. So its really a right now were having this dispute of like mike and it is better than yours. And this is the good versus evil on election in not an election on issues and what brazil needs coming forward. And i dont know how we get out of this, but this comment just paints. To me brings a exactly this idea that some people will say what he said, right . The rich and the port, the are, you know, a seminar commentary would just interested ads. But its neither. You have supporters for both in both areas. You have, you know, real elite supporting both scenario and you have real, you know, india have the poor electing a supporting lula as well. So its, its, thats definitely not the issue. But if you get, you know, a comment from one side or the other that you, you were gonna get this thing that is just like we are in a stalemate, right now. Were not discussing issues. Were discussing who i like and who i dont to sit at that is such a way to getting to pedros question. Weve only got a minute to onset, but say date very, keep quickly if you can. But i want to know what are the main points and plans in each government . A new la government and a continued both in our government isnt really clear to the voters that they got different plans. I think the public debate, its less clear. I think when you read the programs, youll see that the one candidates both are not or is, is more of the same in terms of what he planned to do before. But it didnt deliver on to corruption when there are many corruption scandals in his government that the most secretive governments, since they think theyre shipping brazil dont know much. I think many things will come later. He also promotes the liberal economy but didnt believer. But he broke on that the liberals wanted the either in brazil, so lola comes back with the, lets include people. Lets also put amazon back. And that was on forest, back into the, you know, priority was over the country. Lets have a education and health as a priority for, for all. So i think its a more inclusive set of proposals, but i wanted to say that that was to see a mention. We dont have enough patch that looked at in that. Yeah, were at the very end of the shows that im glad that you were able to say that very briefly. And that i have time to say thank you and lona adiana, cecilia, i dont of your excellent questions on you chief, i feel ive got a little bit of the election bonds right here in the comments section. And so watching i see you next time. Take everybody ah, this was a young woman, the likes of which we have never seen. This is important.
